Abstract

Biscuits were prepared by replacing wheat flour with pumpkin powder at different levels viz. 0 2.5 5.0 7.5 and 10 (w/w) in the standard formulation. The influence of replacement of wheat flour in biscuit with pumpkin powder in the formulation of biscuit resulted in a significant change in the textural and sensory qualities of biscuits. As the replacement level of wheat flour with pumpkin powder increased from 0 to 10 (w/w) the hardness and fracturability was increased. Biscuit prepared by replacing wheat flour with pumpkin powder at the level of 2.5 (w/w) was found to be more acceptable from sensory point of view and thereafter sensory score was reduced. Biscuits with more pumpkin powder had a more yellow color than those with less pumpkin powder. Adding more pumpkin powder increased the level of carotene in the biscuits.
